II reports were true that the police
called at midnight at the houses
OF persons who intended to
speak at the London meeting,

gross outrage. Such action was con-

resolutions cOndemning the opportunist
policy of the deputies under the leader

accused of coquetting with the other

DROPPED TO HIS DEATH.
Martin Geaarde Falls Down an
Elevator Shaft and Is Killed.

The deadly elevator shaft, without
guards, continues to claim its victims
nearly as regularly as the death-dealing
railway train. The latest victim is
Martin Geaarde, who was killed at the
West Side paper mill yesterday
morning. About 10 o'clock he
walked into the mill, and asked
for the foreman, who had just gone out.
On being told this he said he would
wait and began looking around at the
machinery. As the foreman came in
workman saw Geaarde walk toward the
open elevator shaft, and minute later
a crash was heard. Men at once rushed
to the bottom of the shaft and there
found Geaarde lying ''all in heap" as
one of the men expressed it. The patrol
wagon and physician was called, and
Gerard wrapped up and started off to
st. Barnabus hospital. On the way
there he died, and the body was taken
to COnnelly'S morgue, where an inquest
will be held at 2 O'Clock this afternoon.
Deputy Coroner Towers examined the
body as it lay on the marble slab at the
mOrgue. and found the scalp torn and
cut, and that the man had received in
jurieS to his body, legs and arms. He
had evidently fallen upon his head, and
died.Of conclusion of the brain. Geaarde
was a single man, Dane, twenty-three
years of age, and boarded on Seventh
avenue between Third and Fourth
streets. There were no guards at the
elevator at the time of the accident.
Men were set at work putting them up.

To the Editor of the Globe.
While Minneapolis can boast of as
handsome streets and Sidewalks-in the
summer-as possessed by any city in the
Union, she has also in the winter to de-
plOre the most scandalousiy kept side
walks of any city in the country. People
during the past week have ceased to walk
anywhere. The fashion now is to skate
to buSiness-skate around all day and
skate home at night. With sigh they
steal forth. with yell they slide down,
and fearful is the roll of curses that will
be charged up at the judgment day to
the city officers who are delin-
quent in this matter of having
the sidewalks kept in walkable con-
ditiOn. 1t is poor reflection on the
laws of the city, in this respect, that
men, and frequently ladies, for that
matter, can be seen toilsOmely making
their way in the middle of the
street, not daring to risk either
their feet or their necks on the
icy sidewalks. There has been ample
time to mend this state of affairs. Num-
bers of merchants possessed with some
little horse sense and feeling for
others, have their walks in good con-
dition, but those who have not should
be made to do so in quick time, or, at all
events, sprinkle ashes, so as to make
walking possible with some safety, in
stead of as nova positive torture and

An Inmate of the County Jail
Taken Home to Die.
A short time ago the various Repub-
lican papers of Minneapolis and St.Paul
contained glowing accounts of how
Gov. A. K. McGill had been playing the
part of humanitarian by pardoning,
on account of illness, one John TOrgle
son, who was serving a sentence in the
Hennepin county Jail for keeping a
''blind pig" True it is that TorglesOn
died at his home of consumption, in
did not Occnr through any kindheart-
edness Oh the part of Gov. McGill, for
he did not pardon him. Soon after Tor
glesOn was placed in Jail he began to
fail rapidly, and Sheriff Swensen called
III two physicians, who pronounced the
man dying of consumption. AffidavitS
to this effect were sent to the governor
with the request that the man
be pardOned. This the governor
refused to do, saying that TOrglesOn
was salOonkeeper, and he the
governor proposed to make record
by seeing that the sentences of ali the
persons convicted of illegal liquor sell
ing were executed. Two weeks ago
IorgleSOn was again examined by the
physicians. who found that he could
live but few weeks at the most, Gov.
McGill was once more asked to pardon
the man, but he again refused. This
was too much for Sheriff Swensen, who
determined that Torgleson should not
die in Jail just because he had sold
beer without a license. Accordingly
he hitched up his buggy, wrapped the
-afe tool n &c
residence, where he died Friday after
noon, leaving a wife and five children.
Sheriff SwensOn may have run some
risk in removing a prisoner in his Gus
tOdy from the jail. but he certainly
showed by his action that he is human
and possesses qualities which Gov. Nc
Gill does not.
